    What is the President's deal anyway?  I mean, why the heck does he even frickin' care? 

    The anti-choice political lobby provides a lot of support for the Republican party.  Things like this are payback.

    Liesje - well put!

    Maybe in response to the pro-lifers who picket, show horrid pictures of aborted fetuses, bomb clinics (and I know not all of them do), the pro-choice people should demonstrate by passing out literature about the cost of unwanted children put on our welfare system and perhaps show pictures of abused and dead kids who weren't wanted (and I know not all unplanned children end up in such predicaments). 

    Insurance not covering birth control, but will cover prenatal care, birth, and the 18 years before the child is an adult - where is the sense in that?

    Once again, the government is sticking its nose in a place it doesn't belong.  *This* may not lead to *that*, but at what point does it end?  Isn't the reason many people come to the USA is to escape government control?

    You guys are making pro-lifers out to be a bunch of maniacs. 

    The political arm of the anti-choice movement and those that operate fake clincs are groups of zealots.  That doesn't make them maniacs.

    Those activists use anything they can get away with to reduce the number of abortions and operate right on the edge of the law.

    The vast majority of those that are anti-choice are nice people who really wouldn't approve of some of the things that are done in their name.

    I really don't see a conflict between "pro life" and "pro choice."  "Pro choice" is not necessarily pro abortion - it's  merely allowing for the fact that other people have a right to make a personal decision that might differ from the one you would make. It's not a right that I would want to see taken away from anyone by the government, for any reason.
